“he lost his games”
They never belonged to him in the first place. :( At least the PS3 has been hacked to death by now, so it’s easy to just put HEN on it and get all of the games back for free.

They had a really bad POSIX subsystem that was coded by an intern, so they could say “We’re compliant” and get some sweet government contracts.
NCommander made a lot of videos about it on YouTube and had to patch the hell out of it to even get the most basic programs to run.

That’s definitely default behaviour, the start menu is a resource hog. I can recommend StartAllBack.

Same here, I only use it for VR as well (Reverb G2 support is BAD on Linux).
It’s so fucking annoying when you only boot into Windows every few weeks or so, it immediately hogs my CPU pulling down updates (which often takes 20 minutes or longer).
When the Steam Frame comes out I will finally ditch this dumpsterfire completely.

I feel this post in my heart and just wanted to say I support you 100%.
What I really hate about macOS (and iOS) is Apple prioritizing fancy design over functionality. Liquid Glass is just bad UI with shitty contrast, to the point where they had to dial it down before the final release to make it somewhat useable. And doing things like hiding the username field in Apple Mail so you have to enter a fail state first before it gets shown to you is absolute garbage. Apps don’t have to look as clean as possible, they have to be fucking functional.
…and why are we still including .DS_Store files when zipping a directory and creating them on network drives? What is this? 2001 Windows XP with its useless Thumbs.db files? Even Microsoft has long moved on from storing thumbnails in this way.

Updates are painful on modern Windows, to me it feels like they haven’t overhauled the updating system since the Windows 7 days.
It’s ridiculous that you have to restart just to update .NET and they take way too long. The major update from the last patchday took 20 minutes on my Ryzen 7 with 64GB RAM and gigabit internet - from downloading to installing and then doing three reboots.
Fedora on the other hand recently had 153 updates for me and the whole process was done in 3 minutes, with only one reboot.
